growing

I don’t know if any of you have ever stood at the front of the room, with a group of learners seated before you. I don’t know if you’ve ever stood there, realizing that they are all looking to you. For guidance. For direction. For knowledge.

Don’t know if you’ve shared this teaching moment as a part of a team – a team of people who are really smart, and wise, and committed to their craft.

I don’t know if you’ve seen the moment when the lightbulb comes on and a learner becomes a knower.

Or witnessed that moment when individual learners shift into groups of friends, who support each other.

I don’t know that you have, but I hope you will someday.

Because that’s what I’ve had this weekend at the Revenue Rocks program, and the way I’m feeling today? Can’t be beat.

I feel proud.

And accomplished.

And wowed.

And humbled.

My heart is full to the bursting, knowing that people who rolled into DC for this event not knowing what was next for them and for their businesses…now know.

They had forgotten what they really do best, and how to bring those gifts to the world. But now? Now, oh now they know for sure.

And they have a plan. Or make that “plans”. And they’re going to do stuff. Really do stuff.

They are going to change lives.

And to tell you the truth, this morning I’m feeling that the first life they have changed is mine.
